Runtime Parameters: The Runtime Parameters defined in the selected Job
Creation Preset are displayed and their values can be edited here. Right-click the
field to open the contextual menu that allows to select variables, data and lookup
functions (see "Data selections" on page54).
Note that it is not possible to change a parameter's type here; that can only be set in
the Job Creation Preset itself.
At runtime, Workflow passes the parameter values as strings, and the type defined
in the Job Creation Preset will be used to try and parse the input parameter value. In
order to make this work:
o
Boolean values need to be entered as either “true” or “false”. (When the
comparison actually occurs, it will be a full Boolean comparison. Thus it can
compare this runtime parameter with Boolean data values that are stored as
0/1 in data fields.)
o
Numeric string values need to be parseable as a number (either a whole
integer or decimal value).
o
Dates should be in an ISO8601 compatible format (e.g. 2019-10-15) or use the
current Windows Locale date settings options.The latter is not recommended
as it requires all computers in the cluster have the same locale data format.
The order of the parameters doesn't affect the way they are handled at runtime.
Output Creation Tab
The Output Creation step generates the output for the current job, using the selected Output
Creation Preset. Note that the Job Creation task normally necessary when using the individual
tasks is implicitly executed before output creation.
l
Output Preset: Select the appropriate Output Creation Preset to use:
l
"None": Select to prevent the execution of Output Creation.
l
"%o": Select to use a dynamic Output Preset name. Click on %o to change the
expression that determines the name of the Preset to use.
l
Preset Name: Select the appropriate Output Preset to create output with. Listed are
the Output Presets that are present in the Connect Resources (see "Connect
resources" on page40).
l
Output Management group:
l
As defined by Output Preset: Select to send the output of the job to the location
set in the Print Preset (file, printer, etc).
